Pak: Teach Trump history, US has historically destabilised Middle East

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s minister for human rights, Dr Shireen Mazari, responded on Friday to US President Donald Trump’s tweet, saying, “Surely there is someone in Washington DC who can teach him (President Trump) history and how the US has historically destabilised the Middle East with its support for illegal Israeli expansionism and unbridled militarism!”
“Also oil comes primarily from West Asia and Gulf, not Middle East! He should also be told about OPEC member states!” she added.
Trump’s tweet of Thursday had said that despite the protection afforded to Middle Eastern countries by the US, they continued to raise oil prices. “We protect the countries of the Middle East, they would not be safe for very long without us, and yet they continue to push for higher and higher oil prices! We will remember. The OPEC monopoly must get prices down now!” Trump had tweeted on Thursday.
